yeah NO ONE can compete with stephans (scaleoffroad) stuff. that guys insane. he must not leave the house or have a woman. lol hes on his own level for sure! and must have tiny hands to boot to work on that stuff. some of the screws he uses are smaller than what eye glasses are held together with i have an insane amount of respect for his work and products.
go with what makes you happy!

taking the idea from 51willisjeep, i made another hilift but this time from styrene
the balsa wood took me 2 ours an 9 pieces... the styrene one, took me 2 days, its a 24 pieces work and was glued with tamiya extra thin cement.
it can go up and down, like the real thing...

hope you like it!!!
